Neil Phillips The Wine Tipster

Professional wine, bubbles and horseracing expert, Neil Phillips, has combined his three
life-long passions to forge a unique career spanning over three decades.

After spending his childhood in Gloucestershire, Neil’s love of punk-rock led him to the vibrant music scene of Sheffield, where he graduated with a BA Hons in Urban Studies. His career path was changed, however, after attending a Chardonnay blind tasting event which inspired him to leave his graduate job (but not the punk-rock) and enrol on a Wine & Spirit Education Trust Diploma course.

"Neil has that rare gift of being able to put things over in a way anyone can appreciate, whether they knew much about wine previously or not, and his infectious enthusiasm is irresistible, taking the entire audience with him."

"Neil is a charismatic presenter, with a great ability to synthesize the complexities of Spanish grapes, regions and tasting terms, and present them in a clear and engaging way."
